"Magic
bone scrapers, bellowing seals and dancers' footsteps, tones on a reed
flute, bronze lurs which resound in ritual harmony with gong and clay
drum! For the first time we can now hear a gramophone recording of how
'music' may have sounded during Scandinavian prehistory - the Stone Age,
Bronze Age and Iron Age - a period of some 12,000 years. The evocative
soundscapes conjured forth by music-archaeologist Cajsa Lund in this
unusual, indeed unique gramophone record - based on prehistoric
Scandinavian instruments - has required extensive research. The sounds
on prehistory rest on solid ground. Listen and enjoy!
Recorded March-May 1983 in Stockholm (EMI Studios), Copenhagen (the National Museum) and on the island of Gotland, Sweden (outdoors). A recording made in Lejre, Denmark, 1974 has also been used (ex. 24) [Track B1].
